16 Ton Single Girder Overhead Crane for Belarus
Yuantai Crane's 16-ton single girder overhead crane, designed for Belarus’s industrial needs, offering reliability, strength, and efficiency.
16 Ton Single Girder Overhead Crane Kit Without Main Girder Project Overview
This project is for a manufacturing company based in Belarus. The client placed the order on May 11, 2024, after a few rounds of technical discussions and solution matching.
The customer needed a reliable lifting solution for handling heavy materials in their indoor workshop. They had specific requests for lifting height, power supply compatibility, and equipment quality. We provided two types of cranes—each carefully chosen to match different working zones and tasks in the plant.

Products Supplied
HD-Type Single Girder Overhead Cranes (European-style)
- Quantity: 2 sets
- Lifting Capacity: 16 tons
- These cranes are used for general workshop lifting work.
- The client needed high lifting height (30 meters), and our HD model was a perfect fit.
Client Requirements
The client was looking for a complete lifting solution for their indoor manufacturing workshop. Their production process involves moving heavy loads regularly, so they needed equipment they could count on—day in and day out.
We spent time understanding their actual working conditions. Based on that, these were the key requirements they shared:
Main Needs
- High lifting capacity
The cranes needed to handle large, heavy materials safely. A 16-ton capacity was a must. - Compact structure
The workshop had existing steel frames and a limited ceiling height. So, the crane design had to be compact and space-efficient. - Lifting height of 30 meters
They needed enough vertical travel to lift and lower tall components with ease. - European-style hoist system
The client preferred a modern, low-maintenance hoist with smooth movement and low noise. - Power compatibility
Equipment had to match the local standard: 380V, 50Hz, 3-phase. No adjustments on-site. - Cold climate durability
Since Belarus has cold and humid seasons, the crane had to operate well without rust or electrical issues.
We made sure to address each of these points in the design and configuration. No overcomplicated solutions—just what works best for their workshop.
Product Configuration
HD-Type Single Girder Overhead Crane
For the main lifting tasks, we supplied two sets of 16-ton HD-type single girder overhead cranes. These are European-style cranes equipped with low headroom electric wire rope hoists. This model is widely used in modern workshops that need a balance between performance and space-saving design.
The client’s workshop had limited clearance between the crane beam and the roof structure. So, our low headroom design made full use of the available space—without compromising lifting height.
Technical Specs
- Lifting Capacity: 16 tons – Ideal for heavy-duty materials like metal components and assemblies.
- Span: 10.5 meters – Matching the workshop’s bay width for full coverage.
- Lifting Height: 30 meters – A key requirement for lifting tall items from ground to high storage areas.
- Quantity: 2 sets – Installed in two different bays to support continuous workflow.
Key Features and Benefits
Low Headroom Design
- Minimizes the space between the beam and hook.
- Allows for higher lifting range even in workshops with limited ceiling height.
Energy-Efficient Operation
- European-style motors and frequency inverters ensure smooth starts and stops.
- Reduces energy usage and wear on components over time.
Modular Structure
- Easier and faster to install on-site.
- Simplifies future maintenance and spare part replacement.
Wire Rope Hoist with Smart Features
- Designed for steady load control.
- Comes with safety limit switches, thermal protection, and overload guard.
This crane setup offers a strong mix of safety, durability, and ease of use—exactly what the client needed to improve efficiency in daily operations. Let me know if you'd like me to expand the jib crane section in the same style.

Engineering and Customization Highlights
- Customized Lifting Height: One of the key requirements from the client was a lifting height of 30 meters. Our team worked closely with the client to customize the crane’s lifting height to meet the specific dimensions of their workshop. This ensured that the crane could handle tall materials and lift them to the required storage levels, without any space limitations.
- Matching Belarus’s Industrial Voltage Standards: We designed the cranes to match the standard industrial voltage in Belarus—380V, 50Hz, 3-phase power supply. This meant that no additional electrical adjustments were needed on the client’s end, ensuring smooth installation and reliable operation straight out of the box.
- Compact Structure for Limited Headroom: Given the limited ceiling height in the client’s workshop, we incorporated a low headroom design into the crane configuration. This compact structure maximized the available space, allowing the crane to operate without interfering with the building’s framework while still providing the full lifting height required. This space-saving design was crucial to meet the workshop’s specific layout and keep operations running smoothly.
- Anti-Corrosion Finish for Harsh Climate Conditions: Considering Belarus’s cold and humid climate, we used an anti-corrosion surface treatment on all exposed crane parts. This coating prevents rust and deterioration, ensuring the cranes perform reliably even in the harshest weather conditions. The treatment extends the lifespan of the cranes and reduces maintenance costs, making them ideal for use in cold, industrial environments.
Manufacturing and Quality Control
The cranes were manufactured at Yuantai Crane’s certified factory in Xinxiang, China, where we adhere to the highest standards of production. Our factory is equipped with advanced machinery and experienced technicians who ensure each component is built to last.
Quality Assurance Process
- CE and ISO-compliant production: We follow strict CE and ISO-certified production standards to ensure the cranes meet both international safety and quality requirements.
- Third-party inspection: Before shipment, we arrange for third-party inspection to verify that all components meet the agreed specifications. This helps the client feel confident in the quality and performance of the cranes.
- Comprehensive testing: Every crane and its parts are tested and pre-assembled at our factory to ensure smooth operation. We conduct rigorous tests on hoists, motors, and control systems to guarantee the cranes perform at their best when they reach the client.
Logistics and Delivery
Once production was complete, we organized everything to ensure the cranes would be delivered on time and in perfect condition.
Key Logistics Highlights
- Export logistics: We coordinated sea freight logistics to deliver the cranes to Belarus. Our team handles all customs paperwork and shipping arrangements, so there are no delays in the process.
- Weatherproof packaging: Each crane was carefully packaged for sea transport, using weatherproof protection to ensure the equipment would arrive in excellent condition, no matter the weather during the transit.
